1: Introduction
----------------------------
First walkthroughs are always the hardest, but I'll go easy on you.
I was a large fan of Battlefront 1 , and am now a huge fan of this
one.
I must admit, this was originally meant to be a guide for Battlefront 1, but
I started a bit late.

2.1 How To Play
Conquest
Basically, you have to capture command posts and/or reduce your opponents
reinforcement points to zero. You can see the enemy's reinforcements at the
top of the screen. There are two bars and numbers under them. The blue
number is you, and the red number is your enemy. When the blue number is
0, you lose, and it will say "Defeat" on the screen. If the red number is
all the way down, you see "Victory" across the screen. The commander will
report on your status, like saying "Our reinforcements are taking casualties"
or "Victory is imminent!" and other phrases. The second and harder way of
winning is holding all the command posts for 20 seconds. If you try to win
just by killing and not capturing command posts, then most likely you will
lose, unless you are depriving the enemy of taking main battle routes or
holding them at one command post while your allies take other ones easily.
Space Assault
Grab a fighter, bomber, or interceptor, and get out there and take down your
objectives, you get points for destroying critical systems or frigates. For
more info, watch the space battle video
----------------------------
3: Units
----------------------------
There are 6 main types of troops on each side, namely:
The Soldier
The Marksman
The Heavy Weapons class
The Pilot
The Officer
And a special class unique to its faction (e.g. Droideka)
For simplicitys's sake, I'll only cover the unique units
The generic classes can be found in the "Classes" section, this was done to
make the file size smaller, and the download faster.
The CIS's SBD is unique
==========
The Classes
==========
The Sniper
- Assassin Droid
- Clone Sharpshooter
- Rebel Marksman
- Imperial Scoutrooper
Armament:
Sniper rifle
Blaster Pistol
Thermal Detonators
Auto Turret
Overall Rating: 3/5
Long range delivery. Those three words say it all, get to a high spot and
give them a little "brainwarmer" when you put the laser through the enemy's
head. The 2 detonators give close up troops and turrets trouble. But bear in
mind that at close range against soldiers, you're better off dropping a turret
and running.
The Heavy Weapons Man
-Assault Droid
-Heavy Trooper
-Rebel Vanguard
-Imperial Shock Trooper
Armament:
Missile Launcher
Blaster Pistol
Thermal Detonators
Mines
Overall Rating: 3/5
Explosives go boom, everybody knows that, but what better way to do it
without messing your backyard, with homing weapons, and the introduction of
weak spots on vehicles, this will be a good game to blow stuff up, plant mines
in front of vehicle spawns, and boom, throw thermal detonators at troops, and
boom, launch rockets at vehicles, and boom. However... only 6 rockets,
3 detonators, and 4 mines, an you are left with a lame pistol to defend
yourself until you find an ammo droid. And don't even think about using this
class on a map with no vehicles, though it can blow up dense troop
concentrations with ease.
The Engineer
-Droid Engineer
-Clone Engineer
-Rebel Smuggler
-Imperial Engineer
Armament:
Shotgun
Fusion Cutter
Detpacks
Health and Ammo
Overall rating: 4/5
Why a high rating? Well, vehicles are key to winning, so it pays to keep your
vehicles and try to sabotage/steal the enemy's vehicles, preferably steal, as
it gives you a vehicle, and takes one away from them. The Fusion Cutter is
just that weapon, slice into the enemy vehicle, repair your own vehicle,
repair the health and ammo droids, or give them out in the field. Slicing a
vehicle ejects the enemies inside for a free shotgun in the head, then you can
take the vehicle. Engineers can also heal themselves with the health dispenser.
Giving you more health than any other unit if you heal up. The Clone War
engineer has more ammo.
The Soldier
- Rebel Soldier
- Imperial Stormtrooper
- Super Battle Droid a.k.a SBD
- Clone Trooper
Armament:
Blaster Rifle
Blaster Pistol
Thermal Detonators
Troopers carry an automatic blaster rifle that makes for an all round weapon.
They can shred other classes at medium range. Not much to say here. But they
all have different amounts of ammo.
==========
The CIS
==========
The Assassin Droid
Armament:
Sniper rifle (35 rounds)
Blaster Pistol
Thermal Detonators (2 grenades)
Auto Turret (1 auto turret)
See Sniper
Assault Droid
Armament:
Missile Launcher (7 missiles)
Blaster Pistol
Thermal Detonators (2 grenades)
Mines (4 mines)
See Heavy Weapons
Droid Engineer
Armament:
Shotgun (320 shots, 8 per blast)
Fusion Cutter
Detpacks (3 packs)
Health and Ammo (5 packs)
The Super Battle Droid (SBD)
Armament:
Wrist Blaster (250 shots)
Tri Shot
Wrist Missiles (3 missiles)
Overall Rating: 4/5
A good unit, you can't go wrong with it, you can't do much, either, the tri
shot deals out three bolts in one shot, and has unlimited ammo, thus making
it much better than the blaster pistol, but far slower, think of it as the
poor man's shotgun. Along with that, it has wrist rockets, making it the only
unit that is not a heavy weapons or officer class to have a launchable weapon.
MagnaGuard
Bulldog RLR (30 missiles)
Radiation Launcher (15 shots)
Recon Droid (1 droid)
Neuro-Poison (1 use)
Overall Rating: 5/5
The MagnaGuard is a highly advanced and unlockable droid. Its Bulldog RLR is
a homing launcher, but fires rapidly and has several shots to a clip, making
it a deadly weapon. The Radiation Launcher is also explosive, and functions
much like a grenade launcher. It can deploy a Recon Droid to scout and explode.
Its Neuro-Poison is a anti-Rally, bringing down all enemies around the
MagnaGuard to lessen the power of the enemies, and kill them.
The Droideka
Dual Blasters
Shield
Overall Rating: 5/5
Dual blasters, rolling form, long lasting, fast recharging shield, super
killing speed, low charging time.
Need I say more?
==========
The Republic
==========
Clone Trooper
Armament:
Blaster Rifle (200 shots)
Blaster Pistol
Thermal Detonators (4 Grenades)
See Soldier
Clone Sharpshooter
Armament:
Sniper rifle (35 rounds)
Blaster Pistol
Thermal Detonators (2 grenades)
Auto Turret (1 auto turret)
See Sniper
Heavy Trooper
Armament:
Missile Launcher (7 missiles)
Blaster Pistol
Thermal Detonators (2 grenades)
Mines (4 mines)
See Heavy Weapons
Clone Engineer
Armament:
Shotgun (320 shots, 8 per blast)
Fusion Cutter
Detpacks (3 packs)
Health and Ammo (5 packs)
Clone Commander
Chaingun
Blaster Pistol
Rally (1 use)
Recon Droid (1 droid)
Overall rating: 5/5
OH YEAH!, Unlimited ammo with a bullet hose, chops through Jedi and scout
vehicles. But takes a while to begin the fire, rally increases the defense of
units in a certain radius, and the recon droid is a fabulous asset if leading
a squad.
Jet Trooper
EMP Launcher (8 shots)
Commando Pistol
Thermal Detonator (4 grenades)
Overall Rating: 4/5
This is the one for flight, the Jet Trooper can nimbly traverse the field with
his jetpack, his EMP rockets are lethal to droids, but do not damage clones.
His commando pistol is one of the top weapons, with a lower charging time and
a faster and more damaging bullet. Cool outfit too.
============
Rebel Alliance
============
Rebel Soldier
Armament:
Blaster Rifle (300 shots)
Blaster Pistol
Thermal Detonators (4 grenades)
Rebel Marksman
Armament:
Sniper rifle (35 rounds)
Blaster Pistol
Thermal Detonators (2 grenades)
Auto Turret (1 auto turret)
See Sniper
Rebel Vanguard
Armament:
Missile Launcher (7 missiles)
Blaster Pistol
Thermal Detonators (2 grenades)
Mines (4 mines)
See Heavy Weapons
Rebel Smuggler
Armament:
Shotgun (240 shots, 8 per blast)
Fusion Cutter
Detpacks (3 packs)
Health and Ammo (5 packs)
Bothan Spy
Incinerator Pistol (145 shots, 10 per pull)
Stealth
Regeneration (1 use)
Time Bomb (3 bombs)
Overall Rating: 4/5
The incinerator has too short a range. Any stray hit will fizzle the stealth,
you can't sprint, either. Finally, the time bomb has no real use, vehicles
are way too fast, turrets are way too well defended, and an AT-AT, I'd like
to see you break through the troop line. So what's so good about this unit?
Stealth is infinite if you have endurance, but you must keep it on stealth,
not use the incinerator when undercover, regeneration is also the one saving
ability to any troop, all units health will regenerate till full if affected.
Wookie Warrior
Bowcaster (210 shots)
Grenade Launcher (15 grenades)
Thermal Detonators (4 grenades)
Recon Droid (1 droid)
Overall rating: 4/5
If any of you play Command and Conquer, this is the mammoth tank of BF2,
super strong, but super slow, the bowcaster and the grenade launcher give
troops a mouthful but it's as slow as a snail, and is easily outmaneuvered by
the faster troops
=============
Galactic Empire (cue Imperial March)
=============
Imperial Stormtrooper
Armament:
Blaster Rifle (250 shots)
Blaster Pistol
Thermal Detonators (4 grenades)
Imperial Scoutrooper
Armament:
Sniper rifle (35 rounds)
Blaster Pistol
Thermal Detonators (2 grenades)
Auto Turret (1 auto turret)

Imperial Shocktrooper
Armament:
Missile Launcher (7 missiles)
Blaster Pistol
Thermal Detonators (2 grenades)
Mines (4 mines)
See Heavy Weapons
Imperial Engineer
Armament:
Shotgun (240 shots, 8 per blast)
Fusion Cutter
Detpacks (3 packs)
Health and Ammo (5 packs)
Imperial Officer
Sonic Blaster (35 shots)
Mortar Launcher (25 shots
Rage (1 use)
Recon Droid (1 droid)
Overall Rating: 3/5
The galactic civil war has produced some wimpy officers. The sonic blaster
rounds are powerful, but they take too long to travel and reload. The mortar
has a limited range, but hopeless accuracy. The only thing useful is the rage
ability, giving all the squad an enhanced damage bonus.
Dark Trooper
ARC Caster (25)
Commando Pistol
Thermal Detonators (4 grenades)
Overall Rating: 5/5
Perfect, second only to the droideka, which I feel is overpowered, the arc
can be charged and kill up to 4 units at once, the pistol is enhanced, and the
thermal detonator count is reasonably good.

3.5 : Awards
---------------------
Awards are what you get when you earn medals, medals are what you get when
you perform certain accomplishments, like getting a certain number of points
in one life.
You start at Green rank, then work your way up
The awards are
All Medals have to be accomplished in one life
Medal | Criteria Award
-----------+-----------------------------------------------------
Gunslinger | 6 Pistol Kills in One Life | Precision Pistol |
Frenzy | 12 Blaster Rifle Kills | Elite Rifle |
Demolition | 4 Critical Hits | Guided Rockets |
Technician | Slice into a Vehicle | Vehicle Regeneration |
Marksman | 6 Headshots with a Sniper | Beam Rifle |
Regulator | 8 Shotgun Kills | Flechette Shotgun |
Endurance | 8 Points | Stamina Regeneration |
Guardian | 16 Points | Damage Reduction |
War Hero | 24 Points | Attack Increase |
-----------+----------------------------+------------------------
I've decided not to tell you what the award weapons can do as I feel that it's
best for you to find out the true power for yourself, all I can tell you is
that they are outrageously powerful and that the bonuses are good for your
survival.
Once you get 4 of a certain medal, you earn the veteran rank, and can use it,
when you get 32, you need only achieve 75 percent of the requirements,
e.g. 6 points for endurance
The awards have a 30 second grace period, that if you die, you will respawn
with the weapon.
Once you get 64 medals, you have the award permanently.

Guide Summary
Name: What it is
Side: What faction it is in
Crew: How many spots for destruction
Good Against: What will it shred
Bad Against: What's it bad against
Weapon(s): What you've got to kill with
Piloting: How to drive your ride
Fighting: How to blow this to the junkyard
Critical Hit Hitting: How to blow this thing to Abu Dhabi and back
Special Ability: Special Stuff
Vehicles are the top priority to killing, you should always try to get one
and destroy the enemies', these things are so powerful that they can mow down
an entire battalion of troops in a flash, kill these, or be killed
There are five classes (including turrets) of vehicles, the four main classes
are
Light Medium Heavy Extra-Heavy
Less | | | | More
Firepower ----|---------|--------------|------------|----------->
| | | |
Speed <---|---------|--------------|------------|------------
More | | | | Less
Light Medium Heavy Extra-Heavy
(e.g. STAP) (e.g. IFT-X)(e.g. Spider Walker) (e.g. AT-AT)
================
Light
================
These vehicles are your bane ... or your boon, they are fast, but have
tin foil armour
Name: STAP
Side: CIS
Crew: 1
Good Against: Infantry, Turrets
Bad Against: Rockets, Tanks, Grenades, Snipers
Weapons: 2x Laser Cannons
Piloting: Don't stop moving! Speed is your main advantage, use the boost to
impale and mow down infantry, the laser cannon makes short work of troops,
but it is pointless on vehicles
Fighting: Your best chance is to pursue in a tank, or to shoot a rocket and
pray that it hits, other methods are to try to snipe the driver.
Critical Hit Hitting: None
Name: Speeder Bike
Side: All but CIS
Crew: 1
Good Against: Same as STAP
Bad Against: Same as STAP
Weapon: Laser Cannon
Piloting: Same as STAP
Fighting: Same as STAP
Critical Hit Hitting: None
Special Ability: This has a limited jump ability.
================
Medium
================
These vehicles are devastating against infantry and are also good against
tanks, terminate them with caution.
Name: AAT
Side: CIS
Crew: Pilot
Gunner
Good Against: Other Tanks, Infantry, Turrets
Bad Against: Rockets, Grenades, Anything close up
Weapons: 2x Laser Cannon
2x Missile Launcher
Big Laser Cannon (Gunner)
Piloting:
The first equation
AAT = Powerful
AAT - Big Laser Cannon = Slag
Get it yet? The tank needs a gunner to win in a fight, no gunner, no chance.
The second equation
AAT + flanked = Flanking enemies dead
The tank turns so fast that it can take out enemies on either side.
The crucial equation
AAT + enemy under tank = Slag
The blind spot of the tank is under the cockpit, behind the tank
Fighting: Follow the equations, and get under that cockpit, and unload.
Critical Hit Hitting: Hit the spot under the cockpit, the most accessible area
is also the easiest spot to hit.
Name: Alliance Assault Craft-1 (AAC-1) a.k.a. MRLS
Side: Rebel Alliance
Crew: Pilot
Gunner
Good Against: Fast moving infantry, Tanks
Bad Against: Rockets, Long range threats
Weapons: 2x Laser Cannons
2x Particle Cannons
2x Missile Launchers (Gunner)
Piloting: OH YEAH!!!!! 12 MISSILES in QUICK SUCCESSION. Bye Bye tanks,
good speed makes for a rapid kill. Think MRLS, only much stronger. The
driver's weapons are a good way to guard the big one, the missiles.
Good turning power as well
Fighting: If anybody has a strategy please send one in, but as for now, my
only method is to get on the thing and pack it with lasers.
Critical Hit Hitting: Hit the cooling tanks on the side, it is hard to hit,
but possible.
Name: Hailfire Droid Tank a.k.a. Scud
Side: CIS
Crew: 1
Good Against: Infantry, Slow Threats
Bad Against: Other Tanks
Weapons: Laser Cannon
2x Missile Racks
Piloting: This thing isn't called Hailfire for a reason, it should have been
called Hellfire, after the missile, this competes with the AAC-1 for most
missiles. This thing is also fast and rotates good as well.
Fighting: Take it on from a distance with rockets, no better way.
Critical Hit Hitting: Hit the pointy bit under the tank.
Can somebody send a strategy for how?
Name: IFT-X / IFT-T
Side: Republic, Empire
Crew: Pilot
Gunner
Good Against: Infantry, Other Tanks(w/o turret)
Bad Against: Snipers, Rockets
Weapons: 2x Laser Cannons
2x Missile Launcher
Beam Cannon (Gunner)
Piloting: This vehicle is the tank of choice, fast, powerful, and versatile.
The twin missiles will make sort work of other tanks and the lasers will
massacre infantry, the strafing ability is the best method to attack others.
Fighting: You can snipe out the gunner from the turret, once the gunner is
out, the tank is as good as dead, just unload from there.
Critical Hit Hitting: Sneak up behind the thing and give it a rocket, it will
go down in about 3 hits. The place is the circle on the rear
=====================
Heavy
=====================
These are the heavy hitters, but they dish out more punishment than they take.
They are also exceedingly slow to move and most can't strafe.
Name: AT-RT a.k.a. Chicken Little (Very bad pun intended)
Side: Republic
Crew: 1
Good Against: Fast moving infantry, turrets
Bad Against: Rockets, Snipers
Weapons: Laser Cannon
Mortar Launcher
Piloting: This one is tough, the walk is slow and strafing is lousy to start.
My experience tells me to start strafing early to get up to full speed, boost
when possible as this is one really slow vehicle. The firepower behind the
seat is enormous, and most troopers will be dead if they don't find cover
quick. The mortars are LOBBED, so aim higher than the desired target.
Fighting: You can snipe the driver out of the cockpit, or hit the barrel under
the seat, destroying the entire vehicle in one rocket hit.
Critical Hit Hitting: A single critical hit from a rocket blows the entire
thing up, you can sneak up behind it and give it to him.
Name: AT-ST a.k.a. Chicken Walker
Side: Empire
Crew: Pilot
Gunner
Good Against: Groups of infantry, Tanks
Bad Against: Rockets, Being backed
Weapon: 2x Laser Cannon
2x Particle Cannon
Guided Missile (Gunner
Piloting: Good speed for a heavy vehicle, the cockpit is shielded so you can't
be sniped either. The cannons fire for 5 seconds before cooldown is needed the
particle cannon has the "splash laser" effect and can clear out groups of
enemies en masse. The vehicle is quite tall and that gives it a good range,
too. The gunner can help out by firing missiles at enemies, or better yet,
use missiles as scouts.
Fighting: The AT-ST does not have the 360 degree joint anymore, so you can
take it down by shooting it in the back. Just stay behind it and blow its
critical spot - The block below the cockpit
Critical Hit Hitting: Like I said, stay behind and knock it's block off.
(pun intended)
Name: Armoured Tank Droid
Side: CIS
Crew: 1
Good Against: Everything in front of it
Bad Against: Everything behind it, rockets, grenades
Weapons: 2x Shock Rifles
2x Mortar
Piloting: This thing will rip through enemy lines and trash the opposition
as long as they are in front of you, I suggest that you have a soldier to
guard your back, you will be slagged if a rocketman/engineer gets there.
The twin Shock Rifles can seriously damage any opponent nearby, the mortar is
just as destructive.
Fighting: Close range monster, you definitely do not want to be up close in
front of this thing, note that I said up front, the vehicle's turning speed
is soooo slow, that it can't turn fast enough to nullify a threat in the back.
Unless it boosts.
Critical Hit Hitting: Just circle the tank and blast the side of the rear
tread cylinder.
Name: Spider Walker
Side: CIS
Crew: 1
Good Against: Tanks, infantry
Bad Against: Fast Infantry, rockets, being flanked
Weapon: Laser Cannon
Beam Cannon
Piloting: This is one big vehicle, a huge asset for killing AT-TE's. It can
massacre infantry by the dozens, the beam laser can sweep off all the enemies
the laser blaster can also deal tremendous amounts of damage to infantry.
I will now show you the dark side of this.
Fighting: This is one big target, a large liability for the AT-TE's to target.
It can also be downed by rocket troops easily, the beam laser leaves no
question to it's location, the laser blaster is easy to dodge if on foot.
Also, this vehicle is way too slow and cannot boost.
Simply put, it's a sitting, okay, slow moving, duck.
Critical Hit Hitting: Aim for the joints to waste this thing, it's major
blind spot is under it.
===============
Extra-Heavy
===============
These are the troop spawning, heavy hitting, and absolute killer vehicles.
Introducing the command vehicles.
Name: AT-TE
Side: Republic
Crew: Pilot (Forward)
Main Gunner (Top)
Rear Gunner (Rear)
Good Against: Everything
Bad Against: Rockets, grenades
Weapons: 2x Laser Cannons (Pilot)
2x Particle Cannons (Pilot)
1x Large Particle Laser (Main Gunner)
2x Repeating Blasters (Rear Gunner)
Piloting: This vehicle has got the most firepower for any vehicle, guns here
and there, rear, front, and side, even the bottom is covered by the spawning
troops. A single shot from a particle or laser cannon will kill most clumps
of infantry.
Fighting: I suggest a tank or rocket launcher as this thing is impervious to
small arms fire. Other than that hit the cylinder on the bottom.
Critical Hit Hitting: Hit the cylinder on the bottom.
Special: Spawn Point
Name: AT-AT
Side: Empire
Crew: Pilot
Good Against: Everything
Bad Against: Almost nothing except rockets and snowspeeders
Weapons: 2x Laser Cannons
2x Heavy Laser Cannons
Piloting: This is THE big one, the one and only, the terror of Hoth, the AT-AT.
The Cannons on this thing pretty much vaporise anything it hits, shoot at the
enemy with the lasers and finish it with the particle cannon, the particle
cannon travels so fast that it can intercept the snowspeeder, the only real
threat, when facing one that is circling you, watch where it passes, stop,
and suppress that area, the speeder will go through that area and go boom, or
it will flee, keeping your AT-ATs close together ensures that they can protect
each other
The snowspeeders will not be able to wrap the AT-AT's or they will bash into
the legs of the other one, or get shot down, the AT-ST's will clear the way of
rocketmen, with assistance from the snipers, and you win.
Fighting: You should have no problem hitting it, just blast its neck like
there's no tomorrow. You can use this formation (theoretically... nothing
works in practice)
Your best bet is get the AT-AT's spread out so that they can get
taken down by the vanguards/Snowspeeders, the snipers should take down the
enemy stragglers, the wook's will hold the defensive line for the Tauntauns to
flank them.
The point is to outflank the formation of the enemy
Critical Hitting: Get under it and blow it's neck up, if you can get under
it, the thing will go down.
-----------------
Turrets
-----------------
Last but certainly not least are the turrets, abundant in nature and good for
massacring infantry or light vehicles en masse.
Name: Laser Turret
Weapon: Laser Cannon
Good Against: Most Things
Bad Against: Tanks
The laser cannon on this turret will be good against both infantry and
vehicles alike but not too powerful against either, it could save your
life by covering your face from incoming fire. It's better than being on foot.
Name: Anti-Infantry Turret
Weapon: Repeating Blasters
Good Against: What do you think??
Bad Against: Tanks
Use this turret to kill troops, think of it as an elite rifle turret.
Name: Anti-Vehicle Turret
Weapon: Particle Cannon
Good Against: Guess? No Prizes, 3 guesses :)
Bad Against: Moving Infantry

-----------------
5: Space Combat
-----------------
Simply put, get on their ship, blow them and get the hell out of dodge,
or slag their ship from the exterior, that's what space combat is about.
Each ship has several systems that give points, and 2 systems that make
life easier for you
They are
Critical Systems
Engines
Life Support
Bridge
Comms Array
Sensor Array
Support Systems
Shield Generator
Auto-Defense Mainframe
The ones that give you points are the first 5, the other 2 make it easier
for you to slag their ship.
The Shield Generator, Auto Defense mainframe, Engines, and Life Support are
all accessible from inside.
All critical systems can be bombed from the outside, but only if the shield
is down, either via sabotage or by boming from the outside
Bombing the Engines and Life Support internally bypasses the shields
The Shield Generator is the internal area that projects the shield and can be
repaired if destroyed.
The Auto Defense Mainframe is what controls the capital ships outer
Auto Turrets, destroy it to disable the turrets and malke it easier for
your bombers
---------------------
Starfighters
---------------------
There are four classes of starfighters, they are, Interceptors(e.g. A-Wing),
Fighters(e.g. X-Wing), and Bombers(e.g. V-Wing), and Transports(e.g. LAAT)
They are in this graph
Inter Fighter Bomber Transport
Less | | | | More
Firepower ----|---------|--------------|------------|----------->
| | | |
Speed <---|---------|--------------|------------|------------
More | | | | Less
Inter Fighter Bomber Transport
(e.g. A-wing) (e.g. X-Wing) (e.g. CIS Striker) (e.g. LAAT)
Transports are mobile spawn points when they land.
----------------------
Interceptors a.k.a. Flutter like a butterfly and sting like one too
----------------------
Tri-Fighter
Republic Starfighter
A-Wing
TIE Interceptor
They all have homing weapons and powerful anti-starfighter weapons, they are
best used to guard your ship or protect your bombers.
---------------------
Fighters
---------------------
Droid Starfighter
ARC-170
X-"Lock s-foils in attack position" Wing
Tie Fighter
These are the in-betweens, good at both engaging and attacking systems, but
not as good as either specialised class.
----------------------
Bombers
----------------------
CIS Strike Bomber
V-Wing Bomber
Y-Wing Bomber
Tie Bomber
Apparently all the factions want to ensure that people know which one is a
bomber, and why does the CIS bomber look like Grevious' ship?
Anyway, these are the slow moving, heavy hitting big bombers, they hit hard,
and have powerful weapons. But are slower than all the classes except
transports.
----------------------
Transports
----------------------
LAAT
MAF Gunship a.k.a. Droid Gunship
Landing Craft
These are mobile spawn points if they land, which they often don't, but they
have the biggest arsenal of all the units, but are the slowest.
----------------------
6: Galactic Conquest
----------------------
Conquering the galaxy from a different view.
You have to conquer the galaxy, how? Using fleets to go around and beat the
nuts out of the resistance on that planet.
---------------------------------------------------------
Differences between the new and the old galactic conquest
---------------------------------------------------------
* You now have to recruit bonuses
* You have to buy bonuses
* You have to physically move your fleet
* You can station other fleets above planets that you want to guard, forcing
the enemy to have to FIRST destroy your fleet via engagement, ONLY THEN can
he attack your ground forces
* No more 4 victory superweapon, Previously, after four victories, you could
use a superweapon
* You can engage the enemy fleet in space
------------------------
What you can buy
------------------------
A purchase is a choice between two classes, each with it's own pros and cons
in galactic conquest, you can choose between Bonus, or Troops
In Bonus, teams are allowed to use a bonus for one battle, giving it a one
off boost, bonuses are cheap, but they last for only one battle
In Troops, teams can enlist new troops into the army, this choice is
expensive, but it lasts for the rest of the game
--------------
Bonuses
-------------
Energy Boost
Makes your units energy recharge faster.
Useful for maps like Dagobah where it is a mad rush for CP's at the start
Cost: 200 credits
Rating
Supplies
Gives you more ammo for all weapons.
Good for any situation
Cost: 200 credits
Garrison
Ground only, the bonus gives you 30 extra reinforcements when you fall below
about thirty.
This is like insurance, where if you go below a certain level it stocks it
back up
Cost: 200 credits
Auto-Turrets
Deploys a defensive matrix of turrets, best for open battles like Mygeeto
Cost: 400 credits
Bacta Tanks
Slowly heals you and your faction troops back to full health
This one is okay, if your opponents do not know that you have this, they
are going to be unprepared when your troops start healing slowly.
Cost: 400 credits
Combat Shielding
Gives your troops extra health to start with when they spawn.
Somewhat like bacta tanks, but more like a one-off big bonus at the start.
Cost: 400 credits
Sabotage
Good for space battles, as it damages ALL enemy vehicles to 25 percent
health when they spawn in.
Cost: 600 credits
Enhanced Blasters
Makes all blasters do as much damage as if the guy had rage.
Cost: 600 credits
Leader
Lets that faction's leader take part in that battle, changing depending
on which planet you're fighting on. Ground only.
Cost: 800 credits
--------------
Units
--------------
Soldier
Cost: Free
Pilot
Cost: Free
Heavy Weapons
Cost: 1000
Sniper
Cost: 1000
Engineer
Cost: 1000
Commander
Cost: 1800
Unique
Cost: 1800
Marine
Cost: 800
As you can see, you can buy anything but the Commander and Unique class, you
could buy the powerful leader bonus, but that is better spent on a unit class
I would suggest this order of buying classes
Engineer
Sniper
Commander
Marine
Heavy Weapons
Unique
You can buy bonuses anytime you want.
Have at least one leader bonus on standby if you have all your classes bought,
use a leader bonus if you are assaulting a base planet, defending against
a leader, or defending your base planet
You can also buy fleets, at an ever increasing price depending on how many
you already have.
Fleet 1 - Free
Fleet 2 - 1000
Fleet 3 - 2000
Fleet 4 - 3000
Bear in mind that these prices are for your existing fleets, not the junked
ones
--------------
7: Sabotage
--------------
Get in, get out, get bombing
There are several ways of sabotage, but all involve an enemy vehicle
Note that sabotage involves destroying/damaging the enemy vehicle whilst it
is EMPTY to render them useless
1. Mines on enemy vehicles
2. A DetPack on the enemy's vehicle
3. A rocketman trained on the vehicle
4. An ambush of engineers
Pointers on sabotage.
1. Do NOT destroy the vehicle totally as you won't get points for a kill,
just damage it enough.
2. A detpack on a vehicle may be better left until somebody attempts to go
close to the vehicle, then detonate it and you've got a free kill
3. Well this trick is easily the meanest one in the book, place a mine on an
enemy vehicle, and drive it towards a concentration of enemies, you get
extra points if you shout "kamikaze" like they do in "Worms" =P
4. Never underestimate the power of 4 rocketmen firing at a pack of tanks
and men heading at your location if they're near an ammo droid all the better
as that will allow hem to fire continously in a barrage.
5. The engineer rush is a powerful tactic, it works in command and conquer
(if you know), and it works here, 10 men with shotguns that can heal
themselves will easily swamp all the opposition (and ruin their vehicles)
--------------
8: Sniping
--------------
Sniping is the method of long range brain surgery, but it's not what
everybody makes it out to be, there are some key misconceptions on snipers
they think that snipers are:
Cheapskate campers
Loners who go solo
Non-Team Players
But snipers are exactly the opposite of what was just said
This is my standard team rating of who to choose first
1. Vehicle Experts and engineer experts
2. Sniper experts
3. Infantry experts
4. Rocket experts (except on Hoth)
You see, snipers are not loners as people often say, in fact, when in a team,
the sniper is a wonderful thing to have on open maps, like Kashyyk.
A sniper usually needs a trooper to accompany him and guard against
close threats.
================
Support Points
================
Snipers without support points are near rubbish, what use is a sniper
without targets (or cover)?
A sniper needs a good point where he/she can view the battlefield, thus...
Snipers with support points are kings of the map.
A support point is a point from which a sniper has a good view of the
field, whilst is relatively covered
Here are some good examples of support points.
Kashhyk - the elevated areas, the stlits, the sea wall.
Hoth - the hills, or better yet, try standing on a snowspeeder!
Geonosis - The cliffs
Mos Eisley - Any roofs, especially the hanger for the rebels
In general, a support point is a good area where you can shoot without being
shot easily.
===================
Enemies of snipers
===================
These are what you have to watch out for
Vehicles
Infantry at close range
ENEMY SNIPERS!!!
Vehicles are hard, but you should have a support point where you cannot be
engaged by vehicular assault, unless you've got a rocketman with you.
Infantry at close range is troublesome, but your support should take care of
them
Enemy Snipers are the main concern, not only will they take you out, but they
will kill your support, namely the troopers and engineers, leaving you open
not only the enemy sniper, but his teammates, who now have you surrounded
support, so when you see an enemy sniper, kill him off.
Likewise, always be on the lookout to kill the support of enemy snipers.
=================
Finding Snipers
=================
You'll usually find a sniper in a high position, or in open ground, that's
where they have maximum scope of the battlefield
================
When Spotted
================
When you snipe a few units off, they will eventually detect you can come for
you with heavy armor, that's where you have some choices
They are
1. Change support point
2. Stay and fight with your pistol
3. Drop an autoturret and run
4. Pick off as many enemies as you can, then throw grenades
5. Leave your support to kill them, which takes us to the next topic
====================
Support for Snipers
====================
A sniper at close range of enemy infantry is toast, the way to counter this
is to have adequate infantry support
My recommended sniper team consists of
A sniper
An Engineer
2 Soldiers
A Rocketman (if vehicles are on)
If your entire tem is going to consist of these teams you'll have a very
weak main force, so I'd suggest this for field snipers, other snipers can
and should hang around command posts, or an area with health and ammo droids.
You'll notice that not only can this be used as a good sniper team, but can
be used to attack just about anywhere, especially enemy CPs.
Oh yeah, don't just have your sniper team stand there, get them moving and
they can do a lot more than snipe, they're an all-rounded killing force
It is ready to fend off any attacks, and also go into an aggressive stance
to fight.
================
Sniping Tactics
================
1. Believe it or not, it may be advantageous NOT to kill all enemy units
in your sights, the laser trail that the rifle leaves is a clear one, and
enemies will look for it once they sense a sniper, so shoot, shift
position, and shoot again.
2. Crouching stabilises your aim, use it when possible, but just remember
to stand up to run
3. The auto turret will automatically fire in the general direction of
enemies, this could be used as a "detector" to find enemies that you cannot
see.
4. A sniper can be used at close range to "no scope" a person, 2 shots kills
anybody but a wookie warrior, a headshot kills anything
5. You can tell where your shot hit, after you shoot, there may or may not be
a red circle in your reticule, if the red lines are forked, then is was a
critical hit, if it isn't forked, then it was a hit, if not, then you missed.
---------------------
9: Downing vehicles
---------------------
Vehicles are the kings of the battlefield, in a one on one against a vehicle,
you'll probably get owned and be at the respawn pretty soon unless you're a
rocketman, or an engineer.
1. Mines are a one-hit killer on most vehicles, except command vehicles, which
is when the rocketmen come in, you can use the target tracking button to
lock onto enemy vehicles, then let one fly. from the vehicle guide, you
can see the critical hit spots for the vehicles, it's always advantageous
to aim for them, but bear in mind that these spots are easier to hit
with dumbfire (manual aiming).
2. Rocketmen, unlike snipers, don't really rely on sniper points, but they
do need support, as the rocket launcher isn't really the best anti-infantry
weapon.
3. The best method of course, is to use your fusion cutter and "borrow" the
enemy vehicles, once the enemy is out, you're free to shotgun the driver,
and steal the vehicle.
4. If you want to fire without being seen, then the guided rockets of
the demolition award are the best tools to use, they are especially
impressive on hoth, where you can camp in echo base and launch a barrage.
5. If worst comes to worst, a chaingun can really tear vehicles apart
in the right spots if you shoot enough.
------------------
10:Close Combat
------------------
Close range is crucial to any fight, weapons become more accurate
and tend to do more damage.
Grenades, rapid fire weapons, splash damage, and even pistols become killing
machines.
Your best bet is to aim LOW with your weapons, why? because with it, enemies
have less chance of successfully dodging the splash damage, it's better to
splash him to death than to aim for a lethal bodyshot and miss entirely.
-----------------------------------------------
11 : The top misconceptions and mistakes
Tips and Tricks
-----------------------------------------------
============
Tips
============
*Guided rockets can be used to scout
*Turrets are powerful
*Drive mobile command posts into the enemy base to spawn there
*With an AT-RT, stand with your back to the wall as the enemy cannot
rearkill you
*Put up autoturrets often, they can see enemies and shoot at them, even those
out of your sight
*Try to time Mace Windu's jump attack such that you are just above the
enemy before slashing as it will do a lot more damage than the usual slam
*Get everybody to spawn as a sniper, then have everyone deploy autoturrets,
then change class, the turrets will remain. (well it's good for a joke)
*Never underestimate the power of a sniper rifle at close range, it hurts.
============
Mistakes
============
*Mines should not be in the open as they flash
*Turrets may look powerful, and they are, but snipers can still hit you
*Don't stand in front of your autoturret, it shoots at any enemy, even if
you are in the way
*This is not a super-soldier game
I'm a human player, I can charge those AI's anyday... arrgh! *respawns*
Even though you are smarter than the AI, safety in numbers atill applies
----------------------------
12: FAQ/User Tips
----------------------------
1.
Q:
Hello, I've discovered a "Hero option" menu one day that had settings to
change how fast your hero is useable and other options. Unfortunately, I
turned off my X-Box and when I started the game again the settings were
gone. Since then I was unable to figure out where the menu for the hero
options were. Just wondering if you could help me out.
- UltraMan.exe / Ryoku
A:
Ultraman.exe, you are probably playing Instant Action, to access the menus
to customize the hero availablity rate, you have to press the "X" button
on the controller, read the bottom part of the screen for instructions once
you are there.
There are several options, one per gametype, like Conquest or Assault.
The options stay for one session(Disc in - Disc Out) only, and are reset
for the next time you put it in.
2.
Q:
I just read your FAQ's. There has to be a way to unlock the hero's. What a
waste. I guess I just can't walk around as Darth Maul. Did you hear of
any cheats?
A: Yeah, there are some cheat codes, but i prefer if they weren't used
You have to pause the game then enter these on in the D-Pad
U, D, L, D, D, L, D, D, L, D, D, D, L, R Infinite Ammo
U, U, U, L, D, D, D, L, U, U, U, L, R Invincibility

I have something to tell you about the game you didn't put in the guide...
1:Droidekas aren't that good as me with my no good aim could take one from
full health to pieces in 2 emp rockets and my friend takes them out with a
pistol when in moving form. Also a good thing to try is put a mine straight
in front of them.
2: Snipers dont have recon droids any more... the good
old star wars
battlefront 1 times...
thanks for reading
neo
4.
Q:
Hi
I found your guide extremely detailed and I found it a great help, I am
wondering if you have a complete version. I'm especially looking for sniper
positions and vehicle critical hits.
A:
Thanks, I'd be delighted to release the sniping portion, I'll try to get it
up ASAP, by the way, you can find the part about critical hit positions in
the vehicle locations, and it also tells you how to down and destroy vehicles.
5.
Q:
Hi!
if you place cheats on in battlefront II, do you still get the awards?
A: yep, it's an easy method to rack up the awards, but it isn't very fair,
as you're cheating >=O
6.
Q:what happens if I get the regulator but I don't get the enhanced shotgun?
A:You need to get at least 4 of the regulator award before you can start
receiving the award weapons.

"I have a strategy for defeating the AAC-1. You have to get in a empire
IFT-T and come up behind it and shoot it with rockets and lasers and DON'T
forget your gunner. I have it for PS2 and I always see the battle between
them and the AAC-1 always blow up. I usually see that at Utapau."
8.
Dean Asks: I just wanted to ask, about the Squad Commands. In the old Star
Wars BattleFront, there used to be the commands to "Hold" and "At Ease" etc.
But all I can command the troops are "Follow me" and "Move Out" commands.
Can you tell me how to do the other commands?
A: Nope, I can't tell you, because there aren't any, they removed most of the
squad commands and the only commands left are "follow me" and "move out"
(to tell them to go away from you.)
On a side note, they'll stay by your side, making it fairly hard to get
them to stop following you.
----------------------------
13: End
----------------------------
I do hope that my FIRST faq helped, do note that this guide will be updated
regularly, so check back for more tips!
Until next time, good luck, aim well, and may the force be with you.
